My god, the new glasses cannot come too soon.  (Yes, I got the call that they were ready on Thursday.  I can't pick them up until Tuesday.)  I can see fine through my contacts, but my eyes dry out after a point and I have to switch, and with the glasses, lately more and more I can just plain not see.  I'm sure it's still safe for me to drive with these glasses, but only just.  Save me.
